Day 5. Ate roommate G’s FriendHouse leftovers today for lunch. I mixed in the scoops of leftover fried rice with the other thing of leftover white rice, then poured some soy sauce, and it was like I had an entire bowl of all-fried rice — brilliant! Then, I found some leftover salad in the cafe, and coworker P brought me half a cupcake. Just one more day left to go. I can do it! (Because I still have that leftover Lenny’s sandwich from yesterday that I was going to eat today but didn’t so can have it for lunch tomorrow.)

I WAS SO HUNGRY BY THE TIME 30 ROCK STARTED. but I just sucked it up because I knew I’d just go to bed right afterwards to sleep the hunger away. BUT THEN! ROOMMATE G COMES TO THE RESCUE YET AGAIN!!! As per the usual he orders a shitload of Chinese food, and then by the end of 30 Rock, he just hands me his white rice and leftover pieces of veggies. My eyes light up and I am like G YOU ANGEL!!! And he explains, I hate mushrooms — you have them. GASP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE MUSHROOMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve discovered something wonderful.
